I love meeting older people in fandom.

i’m talking 30+, 40+ y’all are awesome! so many of you have been through so many fandoms. like, when i meet older voltron fans, it’s like WOW! you were around and watching the first time voltron aired! that’s so cool! so many of them are such talented writers who know the importance of Ao3 having been through livejournal and ff.net and all that stuff from before i was a part of fandom. some even from the days when zines were made by hand! like, wow! yet, so many of them are apprehensive to tell me their age at first due to judgment, but it’s like, no! you are so welcome here! you literally are part of why we have what we have today. lets talk! bestow your fandom wisdom unto me! let’s talk about favorite characters and all our ships! so what if you’re older than me? we’re all fans!

i don’t understand ageism in fandom at all, they’re just people.. who have been doing this longer than you. and that’s awesome. like meeting people who grew up stanning star wars when it was first released? that is so freaking cool! veteran nerds. they are the folk who laid out what fandom has become today, and they belong in fandom spaces so hard. so remember to respect your fandom elders.

dear older fandom nerds: you rock!

THE WEEK, THE LATE SUBMISSIONS & THE FUTURE!

Hello, Pidgeki Pixies! JusKla here! First off...

...LOOK AT ALL OF THAT!! Look at all of the amazing Pidgeki posts that never would’ve existed if we didn’t come together for this week: The writings, the arts, the comics, everything! Amazing job everyone! I would like to take the time to list off and thank everyone who created something for this week.

Thank you so much for all of your hard work!

LATE SUBMISSIONS

As of this post, Pidgeki Week is now accepting late submissions! Missed a day and still want to do it? Didn’t get a chance to take part, but want to? This grace period is for all of you! Any time over the next two weeks (until august 7th) you can upload for whatever day(s) you like, and they’ll still make it into the Pidgeki Week event in what I would still consider a timely fashion. 

After that two weeks is over, will you still be able to partake? Yes and no. It won’t be considered as part of the ‘official week’, but I will still reblog it here because, this leads into my 3rd and final announcement for today...

THE FUTURE OF @PIDGEKIWEEK

So, this is already something I have talked over with the Pidgeki discord, and it’s really exciting. Most ship week blogs end when the event is over, and that’s that, maybe they revive for the ship week of the following year, but for @pidgekiweek i have something a little bit different in mind. Since this blog is really the ONLY major place on tumblr to find Pidgeki content since the ship is a rarepair, I have decided that though pidgekiweek will keep it’s url (for now at least), once all of the late submissions are in, the rest of the blog is going to have a metamorphosis! How so? Basically: after August 7th, this blog is going to become the #1 source for all things Pidgeki and may host some smaller Pidgeki events throughout the year!

So don’t hit that unfollow button just yet: there is so much more in store! It won’t be active all the time, but I will try to keep the Pidgeki flame alive when I can! 

Thanks again to those who took part in what was not only the first ever Pidgeki Week, but also my first ever Voltron fandom event, thank you. It really meant a lot to me. I look forward to receiving any late submissions you guys have, and I am so excited for what the future holds for this blog! Pidgeki forever<3

Looking Forward to the Upcoming Voltron: Legendary Defender Audio Drama!

Hi, everyone! Chelsea here, and today I’m here to talk about something I haven’t spoken about in a while. The upcoming Voltron: Legendary Defender audio drama, “The Ties That Binds Us.”

For those of you who don’t what it is, The Ties That Bind Us is an upcoming fanmade Voltron audio drama created by @justklance.

It’s set to premiere sometime this year maybe around late October or early November.

I asked Juskla awhile back about when auditions for TTTBU are coming up, and they told me they’re gonna plan auditions during the summer, which is a great time to announce for stuff.

Also, do you guys want to know something?

Back then, I discovered a Sonic the Hedgehog audio drama called “Sonic: Letting Go of Hope” and it’s sequel, “Sonic: Unleashing Hope” created by YouTuber and DeviantArt user, @loor-101. And she did an awesome job making the audio drama!

Her Sonic audio dramas were so beautifully made, the cast did an amazing job, the voice acting was perfect, the soundtrack is majestic, the script was well-written, and the editing of the videos were so good, it’s almost like an audiobook!

If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t never have liked Sonic the Hedgehog a lot more than anything else I’ve discovered in my life. (^u^)

And I know @loor-101 might not be familiar with Voltron and stuff like that, but I know she’ll very proud of Juskla when she sees the audio anytime soon.

But I’m pretty sure Juskla can do the same thing as @loor-101 did. It takes a lot of work to do something like this but anything’s possible, no matter how hard it is.

I hope you guys look forward to the upcoming updates on The Ties That Bind Us coming soon from Juskla, until next time, Chelsea’s out!

See you later, guys!

TEAM LOTOR REIGNS

A DISCORD SERVER DEDICATED TO LOTOR AND HIS GENERALS

Hello and Vrepit Sa! Are you feeling conflicted? Is Team Lotor making you question your loyalty to the Voltron coalition? Do you want to hop the fence and get your Galra on? Well, do I have the place for you!

WHO IS TEAM LOTOR?

Team Lotor are the main antagonists of Voltron: Legendary Defender, Seasons 3 and 4, consisting of Prince Lotor, General Acxa, General Zethrid, General Narti and General Ezor.

ABOUT THE SERVER

“Team Lotor Reigns” is a place to bond over Lotor and his generals, both platonically speaking and ship-wise, with a role-based tier system in place for people with different preferences, so everyone is comfortable. I hope to foster new friendships, maybe set up some optional collabs in the future, and of course just have this be a place that you all get to chill out in and bond over Team Lotor with each other + me, juskla, the admin of @lotorsgenerals​​!

INCLUDES

a fun, inclusive environment for Team Lotor fans

an update feed of any new things happening on the server

fun Team Lotor Reigns exclusive emojis!

AVAILABLE TO ALL MEMBERS (GENERAL)

a welcome channel where you introduce yourself

a general chat where we can all talk about whatever

an event chat to keep each other up to date on fandom events

a promo chat where you can promote your own creations

AVAILABLE TO ALL MEMBERS (TEAM LOTOR SPECIFIC)

a logenweek channel to talk about the upcoming fandom week event

channels for platonic interaction

channels for shippy interaction**

a pride channel centric to celebrating gender/sexuality headcanons

character centric channels

**one of these falls under “available by request”

AVAILABLE BY REQUEST/AGE

a spoiler chat to discuss season 4

a 17+ channel to talk about darker themes (still sfw)

an 18+ channel for explicit content

3 general voltron channels if you have other things to share

RULES

BE NICE! which means...

respect everyone’s headcanons, ideas, boundaries

sharing ideas is great, but do not force your headcanons/ideas onto others who may have a different headcanon/idea

this is a safe space to share art/writing/theories, which means no stealing/sharing/posting someone else’s stuff without permission from the creator/writer/artist, etc…

if someone asks you a question you are not comfortable answering, you do not have to answer them, especially if it’s not related to voltron

i will be playing both admin and moderator, so if you need help with something, you can always just ask me!

i’m not sure how many people i’m going to accept, i guess it depends on how many people want to join!

and lastly, just remember to stay on topic and keep discussions in the proper channels, no spamming, etc...

thanks :D

HOW DO I JOIN?

must be following both this account (lotorsgenerals) & me, @justklance

SO I FINALLY SAW VENOM (2018)

and first off, I WILL FIGHT THE CRITICS!

i have never been so offended by a rating score in my life.

the movie was so unique and worth so much more than what the critics said.

also, venom and eddie are gay for each other.

and in love.

SMORCH.

venom (2018) isn't just good.

ITS AMAZING.

and that's the tea.

If you care more about a fictional ship than literal education about the AIDS crisis: you’re an asshole

i know i don’t do discourse, but how ignorant and privileged are you that you think it’s okay to say you’re going to “jump off a bridge” because “op ships sheith” on a post about, get ready for it:

THE DAMAGE THAT GEORGE H.W. BUSH DID TO THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY

that is literally such inappropriate behavior, don’t even try to defend it.

[juskla]

A Final Goodbye,

As you all know, I am leaving tumblr due to it's transphobia, oppression of sex workers and erasure of queer history within it's new policies. In my description is a link to my twitter, where I am now active. I am also making a pillowfort tomorrow... that said.

As long as I have been on here, I have had amazing supportive followers (I love y'all so much), and a lot of you follow me for Voltron. So, as a thank you and a final goodbye, I WILL be doing one last live react on here to Season 8.

As always, and for one last time, the tag to block is "#voltron spoilers".

I'll be back in roughly 4 hours...

It's been an honor flying with you all.

[juskla]

to all of my US followers: please be sure to vote today if you haven't already! if enough of our generation shows up to vote, we could make a real difference! don't let old, white republicans decide your future. go vote! no matter where you are, lets make a wave of blue happen. no independents, no no-shows, lets show this country that we are ready for a positive change: for every person of color, every LGBTQ+ person, every differently abled person, everyone. period. if you believe in equality... #voteblue 💙💙

JOIN ME ON PILLOWFORT!!!

Hello from the other side of the blackout. I now officially have a Pillowfort account! I won’t be posting on there right away, but anyone who wants to follow me early who has an account, this is me!

What does “follow early” entail?  Anyone who follows me on pillowfort by 12/22/18 will be getting an automatic followback so I can build up some mutuals before I begin!

I don’t have Pillowfort account, do you have another social media where you will be active? Yes! You can also find me on Twitter. If I recognize you as a mutual from here I will follow you back on there too, If we are mutuals here and you have a different URL on twitter, DM me and tell me who you are, and I will follow back.

Will you still be posting on tumblr? Occasionally, but mostly things like this unless tumblr rolls back their awful new policies that hurt queer people and sex workers and act like transphobia's a joke

[juskla]

PSA ON THE CREATORS SERVER...

thank you to those of you in my inbox who are actually super nice asking about it, i love y’all. yes, it will happen. yes, it’s postponed. it’s partially postponed because of some people were being really mean to me about it and i mainly became multifandom due to being sick of Voltron Fandom Brand Harassment™. partially because college is a lot and i’m trying to stay a float with that. i would like to maybe start the server around 3 weeks after the final season airs, that way we will not have to worry about or tag spoilers and everything will be all laid out. with time and patience comes good things (patience yields focus), but also it may have already been up and running if people were nice. so to those of you who have been patient, kind and positive, i thank you and hear you, but you can thank the vocal few who were mean, backhanded and hurtful for the delay.

to the real ones out there, you’re great. Juskla

[juskla]

friendly reminder that i...

think and have always thought josh keaton is awesome

and will always support the cast and crew in general... thanks!

[juskla]

i will be posting live reactions during S6!

please block “#voltron spoilers” if you do not wish to see any spoilers! i will be tagging all the posts as that! for those excited to see my posts, stay tuned:D
